Odds And Ends

Your pillow wasn't slept upon
Your closet was empty too.
All of your shirts and ties were gone
There wasn't a trace of you.
How could you go and leave so completely?
Nothing was left of all the memories that we used to share
Just an empty tube of toothpaste
And a half-filled cup of coffee
Odds and ends of a beautiful love affair.

At least you could have said goodbye
You shouldn't have run away
Were you afraid that I would cry?
My tears might have made you stay
What of those dreams that kept us together?
Nothing was left to show that we were once so happy there.
Just an empty tube of toothpaste
And a half-filled cup of coffee
Odds and ends of a beautiful love affair.

How could you go and leave so completely?
Nothing was left of all the memories that we used to share.
Just an empty tube of toothpaste
And a half-filled cup of coffee
Odds and ends of a beautiful love affair.
Odds and ends of a beautiful love affair.
